Chapter 868: Social meeting

Monica was busy reviewing business documents on an interactive desk when Khan returned to their quarters. She planned to greet him, but noticing his lost expression made her abandon that casual approach.

"What happened?" Monica asked, worried. She knew Khan had met Cora and Amber that night, and Khan was the type to suffer over the slightest issue with his friends.

"I should have stayed longer in Reebfell," Khan announced, his mind half-absent. "Just a few more months would have been enough."

Monica frowned in confusion, but her nose smelled roguish thoughts. She had long since developed a sixth sense for Khan's scoundrel ideas, and that ability was sending warning signals now.

"What happened with Cora?" Monica questioned, leaving the interactive desk.

"She switched teams," Khan explained, his gaze still lost in impure thoughts. "She and Amber are an item, sort of."
